Financial Review

 

The improved performance seen in the second half of 2009 has continued into the first half of 2010 with the Company making a net profit after tax from continuing operations for the 6 months to 30 June 2010 of €0.6 million (a net profit of €0.1 million including the loss of €0.5 million on discontinued operations). This compares to a loss of €18.2 million for the six months to 30 June 2009 which included an impairment of €11.7 million relating to the write down of the goodwill associated with the acquisition of ESD Partners. Total revenue were €11.0 million compared with €5.0 million for the same period last year. 

 

The Carbon business generated revenue of €5.8 million and a segment profit of €1.0 million for the period. This represents a significant increase over the same period last year (€1.8 million revenue and €3.0 million loss) and is due to our continuing success in de-risking of our portfolio in respect of both production and price risk.

 

Carbon costs of €3.5 million were €0.4 million (10.1%) lower than the same period in the prior year reflecting cost actions taken during 2009. This was despite the weakening of the Euro against the main currencies of our cost base (Sterling, Chinese RMB and US$) which had an adverse impact on the cost base of approximately 5.2% versus H2 2009 and 2.7% compared to 30 June 2009.

 

The Advisory business delivered €4.7 million in external revenues and a segment profit of €0.4 million compared to a loss of €1.3 million and €0.3 million for the first and second half of 2009 respectively. Costs were reduced by €1.1 million (31.7%) compared to the same period last year, reflecting actions taken in the second half of 2009 to restructure the business and return it to profitability.

 

The Investments business incurred a net loss of €0.2 million whilst still in the early stages of its business cycle. Notwithstanding, the business expanded its activity in the US raising equity for investments in agricultural waste to energy projects Camco has also formed a consortium AgPower Group LLC to build and operate renewable energy project in the agricultural sector. Camco has earned a management fee of €0.2million for running the Ag Power Group LLC projects operationally. Camco continues to develop its investment business in the US, China and South East Asia.

 

As at 30 June 2010 the Company had a net cash balance of €17.8 million (30 June 2009: €18.3 million) and no significant debt.

 

The Directors consider the Company to be in a strong financial position from which to continue its growth and market development strategy.

 

 

Segment Operational Review as at 30 June 2010 

 

Carbon Project Development

The period saw Camco's in specie portfolio remain solid. The portfolio has continued to mature with projects progressing through the regulatory pipeline as expected leading to increased revenue as outlined in the Financial Review. Carbon Project Development activities delivered a significant increase of 4.3 million tonnes in issued CERs, mainly from new projects passing the important milestone of first issuance.

 

Clean Energy Project Development and Investment

Camco has continued to grow its project development and investment operations in North America. Camco has teamed up with a US investor to finance an initial project pipeline of €43 million into six agricultural emissions-to-energy projects. Camco has incorporated and is leading a consortium, AgPower Group LLC ('AgPower'), through which Camco will deploy this capital to build and operate emissions-to-energy projects in the agricultural sector.

 

Energy and Carbon Advisory

Camco's Advisory business had a very successful first half in 2010 with the division moving firmly into profit. There was particularly strong demand for consultancy support in the UK from both public and private sector clients in the run up to the introduction of the Carbon Reduction Commitment Energy Efficiency Scheme and Feed-in Tariffs. In addition, demand for Camco's services in Africa has increased.

 

In May 2010, the decision was taken to close the operations of the China advisory business.

 

 

Outlook

The overall business continues to trade well with a strong profit performance in Carbon & Advisory and good cost control across the board. Through the remainder of 2010, further Carbon projects are expected to pass important hurdles in the regulatory process further reducing the risk of the portfolio and providing the opportunity for the Company to commercialise part of the portfolio should the right market conditions be met.

 

The continued profitability of the Carbon business for the year to 31 December 2010 will be driven twofold; as we pass the important hurdles the delivery of our portfolio becomes more certain leading to additional accrued revenue; the certainty and quality of our projects means we can obtain higher prices through structured or other sales leading to more value for the business. The company has made considerable progress preparing portfolio structures and will only execute if the right terms and market conditions are met. 

 

For the Advisory business, the remainder of 2010 is likely to continue to perform well with continued high utilisation rates and strong cost control. We expect the business to develop and expand into new areas mainly in the UK and Africa.

Notes

 

Significant accounting policies

Camco International Limited (the "Company") is a public company incorporated in Jersey under Companies (Jersey) Law 1991. The address of its registered office is Channel House, Green Street, St Helier, Jersey JE2 4UH. The consolidated interim financial report of the Company for the period from 1 January 2010 to 30 June 2010 comprises of the Company and its subsidiaries (together the "Group").

 

Basis of preparation

The annual financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2009 have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU ("Adopted IFRSs"). The interim set of financial statements included in this half-yearly report has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of IFRSs as adopted by the EU. The interim set of financial statements has been prepared applying the accounting policies and presentation that were applied in the preparation of the company's published consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 31 December 2009.

This interim financial information has been prepared on the historical cost basis. The accounting policies applied are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the annual financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2009. The accounting policies have been consistently applied across all Group entities for the purpose of producing this interim financial report.

The financial information included in this document does not comprise of statutory accounts within the meaning of Companies (Jersey) Law 1991. The comparative figures for the financial year ended 31 December 2009 are not the company's statutory accounts for that financial year within the meaning of Companies (Jersey) Law 1991. Those accounts have been reported on by the company's auditors and delivered to the Jersey Financial Services Commission. The report of the auditors was unqualified.

 

Estimates

The preparation of the interim financial report in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

 

Discontinued Operation

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group's business that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of or is held for sale, or is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classification as a discontinued operation occurs upon disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, if earlier. When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of comprehensive income is re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative period.

Discontinued operation

In May 2010, the Group made the decision to close the operations of Camco Advisory Services (Beijing) Limited (formerly known as Sinosphere Beijing (WOFE) Ltd). This separate business unit was not classified as a discontinued operation as at 31 December 2009 and the comparative Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income has been represented to show the discontinued operation separately from continuing operations. The only material effect is the write down of goodwill associated with the business (€120,000). The fixed assets of the business are being transferred to the China Carbon business (located in the same office) at net book value. The working capital of the company is being wound down and any surplus cash will be returned to Group.

3 Post Balance Sheet Events

 

On 27 September 2010, Camco International Limited ("CIL") signed an agreement with Khazanah Nasional Berhad ("Khazanah") to establish a developer of emission reduction and clean energy projects in South East Asia. Camco South East Asia Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, issued 39.9% of the share capital to Khazanah in exchange for €11.0 million of cash. Camco contributed existing carbon contracts within the territories, brand and other intellectual property and cash of €3.8 million.

 

On the same day, Camco South East Asia Limited issued a convertible bond to Khazanah for €7.6 million, convertible to shares at any period over the next 3 years. Camco Mauritius Limited ("CML") was issued a warrant over Camco South East Asia Limited shares amounting to €2.8 million, again exercisable at any period over the next 3 years. If both instruments are fully exercised then the shareholdings would become 51% for CML and 49% for Khazanah.
